    $1000 + shipping (which can be $0 if you live in the DFW area and want to just drop by my house).

    This is the OEM 360 Challenge Rear Grille that I bought from M.H.T. Ltd in Jan 2003 to put on my 360 Modena which was overheating at the track. Putting this on solved that problem.

    When my Challenge Stradale arrived, I sold the 360 Modena to a FerrariChat regular who preferred the look of the OEM rear panel; so, I swapped that back on, and put this Grille back in the original box that M.H.T. shipped it to me in, where it has sat in my garage ever since. I am now moving and gradually unburying stuff in my garage and selling it off.

    The picture is of it sitting on top of the bubble wrap it was wrapped in, all on/in the original box it was shipped in. So, it will be reasonably well-packed, though that box is very old cardboard, so probably a bit more brittle than it was originally. Heavy duty cardboard, though.

    It is in like-new condition. However, when I received it new, it did have a very subtle imperfection that I chose to ignore and install it anyway: if you get at just the right angle, you can see that the there's a slight imperfection in the arc of the surface... the curve flattens out slightly... I tried to capture it in the last photo.

    I think I see the defect you described. Any chance of a few more pictures of the depression. And did you notice it when it was on the 360? Just purchased my first ferrari 360, and considering this grill look
    Thanks

    The only time I'd notice it was when I was washing it and looking closely for spots that I missed, and I would get at just the right angle to see it. I never had anyone mention it. But it is there and so I wanted to disclose it, not just blame it on the shipping. ;)

    Here's one more picture at a different angle and so different reflections. Not really sure how better capture the spot than the pic above.

    Seems reasonable.
    I would love to buy it, how do i arrange payment?

    email is [email protected]

    Its the only modification im going to add to my car. From all the discussions it seems like I use all the existing hardware and just swap it out. Is that your memory?
    I cant imagine buying a 360 and asking for the challenge grill to be removed prior to taking delivery- im super happy they did, but cant imagine it.

    Thanks again- let me know how to make payment and give you the adress.

    When I had my 2003 360 had challenge grills factory installed front & rear. Not only looked good as they were also functional. The rear did function to reduce heat post driving. In the Summer I still did raise the rear bonnet to dissipate heat.

    I always raise the rear bonnet of my 360 and 355 after driving and bringing it back to its home!!! Just seems smart to dissipate the heat faster and not heat up the electronics and other components in the rear any more than they need to. When hot the rear hood shocks will also pop up the lid a lot faster, so be aware!!!!!

    You weren't the first... you were the third... people can can respond with direct/private messages rather than on the public post. Further, you just asked for a shipping quote... that is far from a commitment to buy. The person I sold it to committed to buy it regardless of the shipping cost.
